Reduce the Stress of Moving House by Employing a Removals Firm You Can Trust, Says Andrew Porter Limited

Andrew Porter Limited has stressed the importance of choosing a removals firm you can trust when moving house.

A major overhaul of the UK’s housing market conditions could see many people moving into new houses, and one removals expert has told Britons to make sure they choose a removals firm they can trust when they do make the move.

Prime Minister David Cameron recently announced that the Coalition is ready to help first-time buyers get onto the property ladder, with a move that is also expected to increase the number of homes being built in the UK.

With a renewed interest in moving home expected in 2012, Tim Aspey, managing director of Andrew Porter Limited, is reminding potential buyers to take the time to choose the right removals company.

"Choosing a removals firm is often an afterthought, following all the essential financial details, packing and cleaning that needs to be done. While this is understandable, people need to think carefully about who they allow to move their precious belongings,” Tim said.

"Many people seem happy to choose any old firm or man with a van to help them move, sometimes with disastrous consequences. Taking the time to choose a removals company that you can trust is extremely important. After all, their workers will be responsible for making sure all of your possessions reach your new home in one piece. What’s more, after all the stress of moving, the last thing you want is to be left have to move your furniture around your new property yourself.

“Customers should choose a well-established firm with professional equipment and resources and ask for customer testimonials to back up the company’s claims.”

The proposed Government scheme includes a £400 million Get Britain Building Fund, which will pay for the construction of some 16,000 properties. Furthermore, a new initiative will underwrite a percentage mortgages on new builds and also offer council housing tenants the chance to buy their accommodation.
